I have thick hair that takes a good hour and a half to two hours to curl with a curler...
However, I found out that you can curl your hair with a straightener and it has worked wonders--I can curl my hair in about half an hour--no joke!
The brand I use is Revlon and it's 1" thick...
It has heat levels from 1 to 25 and it heats up in a minute flat. So if you are on the go, this is definitely for you. And the cord attached to the straightener turns 360 so you can curl all you want and the cord won't get tangled!
You can get this at CVS, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and pretty much anywhere that would sell hair products. I got mine at BB&B for around $20 so you should definitely get it! It's cheap and amazingly awesome!
In case you don't know how to curl with a straightener:
